This is reverence in its deepest intellectual sense.

“Even the best attempts at explanation are only more or less successful translations into another metaphorical language. (Indeed, language itself is only a metaphor.) The most we can do is to dream and myth onwards and give it a modern dress. And whatever explanation or interpretation does to it, we do to our own souls as well, with corresponding results for our own well-being.”
– C G Jung

For example, we can call the various chemical nutrients we need to live and function, energy. And we can divide it into all of its individual components and to all of its different biological processes to describe them. But we can equally describe them as the force of life behind all life. As the chemical elements of the earth. Something to respect that is what is transferred between different kinds of life on earth in the form of what it feeds on, so that life is fueled and able to continue. Whether we describe it with facts or metaphorically, it is an interpretation of this function of life. Energy is also something of a contemporary scientific concept. But it is Prana in Indian faith. Skan in native american philosophy. Henki in finnish traditional beliefs, or Inua among the inuit people. It is that something that is transmitted between creatures on earth as they are eaten, or taken out of the ground as plant life and then consumed by us or other animals. Everything is connected in this way. And how we describe our relationships to this will ultimately constitute the view of our relationship to ourselves. And to life.

People are so preoccupied with how they are perceived by others, about their collective appearence, and the rational concept they have of the goodness of the ideas inherent in that appearence, and that this goodness in some way must have a magical effect on the world based solely on the perception they have of this appearence, and that reality.
But none of them seem to acknowledge that they actually share the same inhumanity we have seen with the worst people, collective-isms, and ideologies human kind have so far suffered in its history.
People of this kind never seem to be able to have any authentic experience of a close relationship to the world. They never seem to appear outside of that imagination. They constantly fight dragons or befriend them in the form of ideas that are similar to mothers in a maternity relationship.
We think that we can control life with our imagination. With someones idea, ideology, or perception of reality.
But there is no relationship to being with the rhetorics of the opposites in rationality, or to life, or to earth.
Being is something we are in.

Ideas have its own subjective origin and comes with a certain pattern of energy which have the ability to order and formulate experiences. And coming to terms with the origin of those patterns is of greater importance to me than any idea in itself, since it is in that origin i share my experiences with everyone else. It is these very patterns that makes it possible to share experiences as something common to us at all, because they are transpersonal in origin.
When people in the world around me is promulgating a kind of objective, or historical setting present in their ideas, often as a sort of collective validation, they are trying to justify having them and to confirm their credibility to me. I try not to get into it because that doesn’t make them more available to me anyway. I cannot see how i can apply them to my life experiences. They would just disconnect me from having a genuine connection to my own senses and to participate in my own ongoing communion with them.
The origin of most of the ideas given by the collective mind is not present, they have lost their individuality and therefore i cannot attach myself to them. They don’t have anything to do with me, or with the recognition of the symbolic reality that is coming from the creative root of the idea.

Every day i wake up, i wake up with the anticipation of learning something new in relation to life beyond itself and to creation. And every night i go to sleep thinking about what i have experienced today in this relation. Sometimes the gifts from the unseen are simply embedded in the roots of its connection. And sometimes my physical life have driven me so far off from this relation that it will make me frustrated and irritated. The sense of my being then becomes unbalanced since i am completely out of myself. Centering will be the sunset act of silent reflection listening to the self organizing process of my nature. It has its own way of protecting the unity of the self. And it will bring me really close to the energized invisible experiences i get from within its symbolic creations. It is in the essence of these teachings life is giving its true meaning to me.

The paternal ancestor experience have always emerged out of me as an unknown ever present awareness of new meanings in an ongoing flow of its own creation. It is its own sole origin, something that also appears as a left behind by time in our collective consciousness. It is the elusive primal source of creative understanding and natures own pristine power of vision. A function that impregnates the life giving receptive mother earth. And we channel him in our process of constellated energy, in the subjective origin of what we think is real. Here he is the great ancestral mystery that dwells behind all established thoughts, behind our consciousness, and in the experience we have of our conditioning by collective environments. He is the individualized embodiment of our forming and the representative energy of our immaterial rebirth since we are all constantly recreated out of his stream of metaphysical pre-conscious perceptions.

The whole of my life’s encounter with Christianity has always been to a strange form of dualism with piety. It’s like its there as a remain from an earlier christian mindset. From my earliest childhood the public world has unknowingly tried to use that to eradicate the being part of the human in me. The part that will challenge stereotyping. Even today I still recognize it in the collective behaviors of people and officials I encounter. And it is still used as a means of control with its unrealistic undercurrent of christian piety.
It is believed that everyone must follow its regulations because piety is used as a form of passive aggression to any challenge of its content. You have to pay attention and be aware of the morals of its subliminal life, and submit to its pressure of conformity, or you are to be excluded from social life because otherwise you are going to expose people to what they are outside of that piousness. This is something most people don´t really want to know about at all.
To be conditioned by this piety is to be separated from your senses and the reality of your experiences. You will be partly anesthetized. No matter what is actually done to you in the acts of this distorted goodness. You have to conform to an impossible idealism and become what they want you to be to them.
That is why I have always been kind of unsettling to people around me. I am not a mechanical piece in the architecture of official morality. That is a pious morality so abominable that it way surpasses all biblical horrors in the real world.
But still, people really think they are only good because they are pious people. No matter the drama they continuously must create to uphold collective morality in their pious life.

When it comes to be able to act and to live, I have as long as I have lived been fighting a terrible war of past and future tense. I don’t reflect that.
I am a perennial reality of the present. Its dna.
Why make me something else?

This image is one of those images that in this precise moment immediately made sense to me. I just look at it and there it is. A perfect image of that nonverbal something that is going on, and you cannot really put your finger on what it is. Its meaning just hits you. And at the same time, it brings back many years of working in the presence of modern art in my head, and I realise just how far off the collective mind is from its metaphysical source. There is this great expression of confusion and turmoil searching for meaning in modern art.  But in this image, there is no confusion, it is the ascending essence of male potentiality turning itself into a psychic substance by leaving matter. What a great find!

At a certain point in life we become exposed to the experience of a multigenerational being extended far beyond our distant ancestors. We suddenly appear somewhere in the process of life where we are receiving vital information from a new source, one that builds upon another kind of knowledge and on the parameters and possibilities that our personality contained up to this point in time. That part of us experiencing this change is also that part of us that has been unchanged by time. And we have learned not to pay too much attention to it for such a long time that most people are now perceiving it almost in its original or pristine state. Leaving them in a dualistic condition. This eternal part have existed there before the life of any individuality begun, and continues to exist when the life of the individual ends. But as we are in a transformation of beliefs based on the vision we have, and in an experience of assimilating our psychic reality, forging a new formation of that essence together with the presence of the older forms of our nature. This new and nonverbal sense of being will respond to our life and to other people with a world of its own. 

In a sense we all function as schamans. With our more or less involontary manifestations of inferred processes of meanings, moulding our empirical life, we do not proceed into action only from physical facts. Our psyche is what describes how our experiences is going to appear to us. And these processes emanate from an ever present primordial source with its own native tongue, as an ancestral part of our being that goes on weather we acknowledge it or not. They are not a product of our conscious intention. They are more kind of semi-autonomous. We do not invent them, we experience them. So being what we are, expressing these self-revelations of a universal and timeless structure from this preconscious psychic world, we are all schamans with a creative relationship to it, forging our link to the fabrics of life. We are becoming its statements trying to formulate itself to us in imaginative expressions outside of time, and beyond ego centric individuality. This is the substance given to physical life. The original revelations of what is present, and thought of as the purpose behind all social life.

I have always sensed that knowledge somehow has departed from experience. And that the vehicle to get in touch with the reality of our existence was lost somewhere along the way in our education. What we experience, somewhere came to a point where it no longer had any representation in what we where taught to think. And the cultural tradition that was suppose to support me with a vehicle for this communion became dormant in my being. But the connection to it did not. People having this connection, cannot get it revitalized out of any academic training to memorize things. We get energized by places and by people. Our individual reality exists in the nature of the immediate. And we experience these patterns of relationships outside the rational habit of diminish almost everything that comes from the impulses that originally generated them.
It is traditional teaching or what we call analytical psychology that will provide us with the reintroduction of our being into this process.
How can anyone ever learn to become human if they never get any teachings about what the reality of our experiences are?

Time is the geometrical concept we use to describe distance, and we habitually apply it to the voluminous content of consciousness. Here it restrict us to our immediate physical environment. And thus, space becomes consciousness.
Outside the concept of time, in absolute time, or universal time, time will lack its physical form and geometrical value of distance. Consequently, everything becomes related to everything else. Everything will exist, influence, and interact with everything else at the same time. Time on the other hand, will always depend on having an individual, or tangible form.
The relations we will have of our experience then, is like being in two different states of the same psychic phenomenon. But each in an individual or different time, manifest either as some sort of matter, or some kind of substance. But most likely as patterns of energy.
By relating only to time, we make ourselves solemnly dependent on distance, not on the actual origin of the experience itself.
Life can optionally be thought of as an ongoing balance between these two states.
We may think that ideas, dogmas or doctrines, are physical realities. Like objects, or “things”. And that energy, or impulses is something immaterial that lack physical attributes.
The truth is, we experience everything simultaneously. We are that reality. Ask any physicist.
Or someone in love.

There is a guiding principle in everything we observe.

Reality in the sense of ideas or perceptions is what you allow your mind to accept, not what you actually experience.

This can make us completely oblivious of an external reality, of what is really going on in the world from the perspective of individual experience. That which make us have an emotional and moral reaction that correspond to what our senses actually mediates to us.
Just look at the news, all the horrors they convey, from personal tragedies to state conflicts, to the destruction of our living conditions here on earth for profit.
It is what we do.
And it is not just a problem with leadership today, it is about us.
What we allow our mind to accept at the expense of our experiences.

The problem we get with our relationship to new technologies is not the false sense of community we get with them. It is the conceptual collective reality we create regardless of the media or technology used, as opposed to our experience of being in the natural flow of life, that has its own highly apparent existence whether we choose to recognise its presence or not.

It seems like the only thing balancing up the collective protocol and its agendas right now is egoism. But on the other hand, if it get strong enough, it will be put into good use when facing its own current madness.

Where we were born, and with which we grew up is part of who we are. We are surrounded by that place memory and history.
When we leave this place, we also leave that part of ourselves. And in a new place, a city or maybe a town, we are going to be surrounded by new people, and another kind of ancestral memory.
We are going to be surrounded by moments and memories of a place that do not belong to us.
It is a bewildering experience from which we must find a new perspective on our individuality.
But for some time, we are going to be in this place called chaos.

We can not save our own time and age, but we can give voice to its path of destruction.
This means that no real change will ever occur in a single lifetime. And if we have some pressing global issues concerning our ability to survive. How we relate to our environment. To nature. Change will not likely happen for about a generation, or some 90 years. Because our leaders decision making is not based on this long term relationship with change.
